White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 86 Never want to get involved
The Linglan people were outside, listening to Wen Ning turning around in the room, thinking of her distraught appearance in the yard just now, and thinking of that Prince Pei had been with her for nearly two hours, and he didn't know what happened. Followed by some anxiety.

After finally hearing the silence inside, I was about to go out to call for dinner, but I heard Wen Ning's urgent cry.

"What's the matter, girl." Linglan hurriedly walked inside, "Alan is here."

When he entered, he saw Wen Ning wiping tears.

Linglan became more anxious at once, and hurried to the bedside: "What's wrong with the girl? But did Prince Pei bully you this morning? If he dares to bully the girl, I...I..."

If Pei Shizi bullies the girl, what can she do?

Probably because even the master can't do anything to him, he is no longer the number one scholar who came from a poor background.

Linglan opened her mouth, almost crying together with Wen Ning.

"Nothing, just a nightmare."

Wen Ning has recovered, but her complexion is still a little pale, and the sweat on her forehead has not been wiped off.

Linglan was quite frightened by what she said, so she quickly took off her handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

Wen Ning looked at the sky outside: "How long have I been asleep? What time is it?"

"Miss fell asleep for a stick of incense." Xia Ritian was late, Linglan said, "Miss re-do her makeup? The master should be back soon."

Wen Ning lowered her eyes.

When Wen Tingchun comes back, he will definitely talk to her about his marriage with the Yan family. How can she be in the mood to talk to him now?
"Change your clothes." Wen Ning collected her emotions, "Let Chun Xing ask Butler Qin to prepare a carriage."

"Carriage?" Ling Lan asked in surprise, "Miss is going out?"

Wen Ning had already stood up, her expression calmed down: "Yes, let's go to the Duan Mansion and find Sister Rushuang."
-
At three o'clock, it was the time for the officials to come down.

Gu Fei waited at the entrance of the engineering department, saw Pei You slowly approaching from a distance, and let out a long breath.

Thank goodness, after these few days, his family's eldest son can be regarded as a normal descendant!

In the past few days, Princess Zhaohe went to the mansion to look for the eldest son, and people came to the mansion every day to remind her.

About half a day's work was delayed in the morning, and Pei You still had some official documents in his hands. Gu Fei stepped forward to receive them in his hands, and jumped into the carriage first, and opened the curtain for Pei You.

"My lord, I just came to report in vain, saying that Miss Wen's family has gone to Duan's residence." When Pei You lowered his head and got into the carriage, Gu Fei timely reported in his ear.

Pei You paused and looked sideways: "Duanfu?"

Gu Fei said yes, and said again: "Tu Bai came to report and left immediately, saying that he would follow Miss Wen into Duan's residence."

Pei You lowered her long eyelashes, said "um", and sat down with a healthy expression.

Gu Fei breathed a sigh of relief again. From now on, he would never dare to delay any news about the girl from the Wen family.

He put down the curtain of the car and was about to hit the horse and drive. After thinking for a while, he asked the people in the car: "Your Majesty, go back to your residence?"

There was a moment of silence in the carriage, and he gave an unexpected answer in a calm voice.

"Go to Duanfu."
-
Wen Ning and Duan Rushuang have known each other for a long time, but most of them met outside the mansion. This is the first time that Wen Ning has been to Duan's mansion in person.

Jingzhao Mansion has always had a lot of affairs, although Duan Yong has not returned to the mansion even though it is the time to be on duty.The daughter of the family had already married at the beginning of the year, and the two sons of the house were not there, so the housekeeper went directly to call Duan Rushuang.

Duan Rushuang didn't expect Wen Ning to come to the door at this time, and immediately greeted her in person.

In the capital city at the end of May, the heat was steaming in the daytime, and it dispersed completely in the evening.

Duan Rushuang originally only set out a few snacks in the gazebo, but when Wen Ning said that she hadn't used lunch, she asked the kitchen to stir-fry some side dishes.

The two of them talked with each other while drinking a little wine in the cool evening breeze.

"Why did my sister come to the house to find me today? You didn't even have lunch, but what trouble did you encounter?" Duan Rushuang is used to observing words and expressions, and waited for Wen Ning to use some dishes and her face eased before pouring for her. A glass of wine is Fushengzui's new Roselle wine.

Wen Ning's complexion was normal, and there was no trace of crying, and she sighed while resting her chin.

In fact, she didn't know what to do with Duan Rushuang.

It's just that she really didn't want to be called by Wen Tingchun to discuss the Yan family's marriage.

The matter between her and Pei You has not been clarified yet, how should Yan Li's marriage be discussed?
"But the Yan family came to propose marriage today, so it didn't go well?" As Wen Ning's only boudoir friend, Duan Rushuang naturally knew everything about Wen Ning's marriage.

Wen Ning sighed again, she really wanted to tell Duan Rushuang to give her an idea, her brain is much better than hers.

But where do you start with this?

Wen Ning shook her head: "Sister Rushuang, what about you? My sister-in-law is already married, so I should start talking about kissing you?"

Mentioning this, Duan Rushuang's clear eyes darkened, and said in a low voice: "My mother has been unfavorable all these years, and my father... also values ​​official career. I am a daughter of a concubine, my father may..."

The dark light in her eyes flickered, Wen Ning understood without needing to speak so thoroughly.

It's fine if the family doesn't care about a concubine's daughter who is not favored at all. Duan Rushuang is capable of planning for herself, so I'm afraid... Duan Yong, who wants to climb up, is likely to give his daughter to someone who wants to curry favor If you are a high-ranking official, you will definitely not be able to be a regular wife. If you can be a noble concubine, you have to be grateful.

"How can I do that!" Wen Ning frowned when she thought about it, even if she is a concubine, she is the daughter of a fourth-rank official's family, why should she be a concubine for someone else!

"Let's not talk about that." Duan Rushuang sighed, "Let's talk about Fushengzui! How do you feel about this new product?"

"And the pharmacy you mentioned last time, I already have some ideas in my mind, let me tell you!"

When it comes to doing business, the brilliance returns to Duan Rushuang's eyes, and the words are endless, as if they can't finish.

Wen Ning also regained her energy, sat up straight and listened carefully to what she had to say.

The two girls chatted enthusiastically inside the mansion. Outside the mansion, a carriage was hidden in the dark. Gu Fei looked at the gradually darkening night and touched his rumbling stomach.

He wanted to... go to the front corner to buy a biscuit.

But he didn't dare to sit next to him to eat when his son was hungry, and he didn't dare to buy an extra biscuit and stuff it in like Dui Linglan.

Hey……

He originally thought that Pei You came to Duan's mansion to go in to find Miss Wen's family, but he just parked the carriage at the door.

Fortunately, the prince has always kept a low profile, this carriage is not ostentatious, Duan Yong just returned home, he glanced here several times, but did not recognize it.

What are you doing outside like this?

In the past, I heard that the girls of the Wen family were chasing after their heirs, and followed wherever they went. Could it be that... the other way around?
In the carriage, Pei You didn't think much about it.

He still had some official documents to deal with, so he happened to be finishing things in the car.

It's just that as the time got later and later, the light in the carriage became darker and darker. He had to temporarily put down the official documents in his hand and light an oil lamp in the carriage.

The moment the flames sprang up, that scene flashed before his eyes again.

After returning to Beijing, he began to have a dream.

In the dream, the gongs and drums were blaring, the sky was full of joy, and the red makeup was spread from the streets of Chang'an to the end of the street.

I don't know which family is getting married, the momentum is so huge, the streets of Chang'an are full of people standing side by side, all looking enviously.

He is among them.

He was riding a black horse, probably on purpose, and passed the wedding sedan chair that welcomed the bride.

It just so happened that a gust of wind blew up the curtains of the sedan chair, and even a corner of the bride's red hijab was blown up.

He looked sideways, only saw a section of fair neck, and woke up with palpitations.

Pei You wasn't sure if this dream, like those weird dreams, was experienced by another person, or if it was just a dream that he thought about day and night, since he heard that Yan Li was going to Wen's residence to propose a marriage, it never disappeared.

It's a dream, but every time I wake up, the tingling pain of pulling the rein is still in the palm of my hand, and my heart is more densely packed like needles rolling over.

There was one thought over and over in his mind: the girl he loves is getting married, but the groom is not him.

This thought annoyed Pei You.

He has indeed been a little strange towards Wen Ning recently, but he thinks he is far from being "cute".

This made him more certain that his anomalies towards Wen Ning were only due to some uncontrollable things, such as "the cause of the previous life, the result of the present life" as Master Hui Shan said.

He can get some guidance through the dream and avoid some things that haven't happened yet, but he can't tolerate the dream pulling his mind.

Therefore, the closer the day was, the more frequent the dream was, and the more he felt like a fire was burning in his heart, but he didn't care about it, and just poured a pot of water into the house to call Bing Jian.

No one else could have a hand in his life.

Even that other person may be another self.

Until I came out of the underground gambling house this morning.

For the first time in his life, he was thoroughly tricked.

The unexplainable anomalies to Wen Ning may be due to the influence of others, but the anger towards her really comes from the fooled self.

Are you kidding him?

Once a crazy idea is born, it will be like a spark that will start a prairie fire and destroy it.

He is used to this, what he wants to do, he will not hesitate, will not waver, let alone resist.

Pei You squinted at the rising flames, put his two fingers together, and pinched it out again.

There was a slight movement outside, Pei You narrowed his eyes, and said to the outside of the carriage: "Someone came out?"

Gu Fei replied: "My lord, Princess Zhaohe is still waiting for you at the Duke's Mansion, look..."

The lights were off, but the quiet moonlight came in through the window.

Pei You casually picked up the official document that he had just put down: "I'm busy with business, so I don't have time."

　Pei squatting wife You
